  • @RainbowDj7
    Me, who just 100% my second playthrough: interesting ✍🏼
  • @Nyahahameha
    I literally had no idea the refinery near Lookout Landing even existed because I never thought to climb up that fallen sky island chunk. I used the refinery outside the Recall shrine on the Great Sky Island for almost all my energy upgrades, and even after I found out about the one near Lookout Landing, I still usually used the one in the sky because it was closer to a fast travel point. "Nobody cares about that one" my behind!
  • @thndr_5468
    I loved how multiple minutes of the video were "do what the game tells you"
  • 2:30 " you shoudnt explore without the paraglider" bruh i went to see Sidon immediately, with the rocky terrain of Zoras Domain just to see he was engaged to a frog 💀
  • @daymare0
    One tip, for the hoverbike, throw a giant bright bloom seed on it. It's just a better flashlight.
  • @PilaCiu
    The weapon spark color fact, I would've never guessed it has any meaning!
  • i think this could be better called "10 minutes of useful info for early game" since a lot goes into basic stuff like following the game's suggestions like going to talk with purah, in case you didn't know, a LOT of npcs tell you to go talk with purah if you haven't done it, i played a playthroufht without a glider and it waas really fun and interesting how the game itself aknoledges your lack of paraglider in many ways a tip i would give is stuff like fusing frozen meat to your shield makes your shield really slippery so its perfect for shield surfing or also fusing a fire stonetalus heart or dinraal part to your shield, these are a two of the most versatile things to fuse with your shield since lets you brake stones, kill small talus, is basically a perfect fire starter and it also helps you in combat letting you attack and burn your enemies, another tip would be to use and brake every weapon you find since when you brake a weapon at least once it will appear its clean version in the depths and my last tip is that, play however you want, take your time to explore everything that seems interesting to you, this game has no right answers, so be free to be as creative as you want

    9:42 Adding to this, the best way to farm crystallized charges in my experience (aside from the one-time drops such as from re-fighting bosses) is from killing the lynels in the floating colosseum. Each of the 5 lynels drop 20 crystallized charges, giving you 100 per run (300 zonaite worth!) on top of the monster parts and lynel weapons.
  • 5:50 is awesome! I haven't seen a wing deploy without recall shenanigans or some tricky timing with a running start.
  • @PlumOrganization
    I didn't even know that a second crystal refinery existed! I always use the Great Sky Island one.
  • @Raph-xe9wj
    On my first playtrough, i was suprised at first that i didnt get a paraglider from the great aky island. So just went onto the rito (the massive tornado looked really cool ok). And once i got to the trail leading up to the dungeon i started accually wondering where the paraglider was. I accually did get decently far towards the dungeon.
  • @ClaytonCLF
    I spent at least 10 hours fooling around Hyrule after the Great Sky island, not even noticing I never got the paraglider. There were just so many ways to ascend and fall safely, like stopping a tree log midair, grabbing onto it and let it fall, or even making a small rock platform and using it like an elevator. But of course it was a hassle to build those things all the time, so I had to go out looking for the glider XD.
  • After you max out your Zonite battery cells, the Constructs that operates the crystal charge refineries will make Zonai devices for you in exchange for crystal charges. You can pick specific Zonai devices. No more having to use Zonai dispensers.
  • @lucassmith3790
    Unironically ended up being even more useless because I knew almost everything. I love the random useless detail videos because it's really fun to see the hidden attention to detail or secrets in these games.
  • Wait, at 5:06 you ran past some free wings to go get some wings. Granted it's good to have the inventory wings too, but you should just glide from that spot right there using the free ones.
  • @TrashMaggie
    If you want a more foolproof way of getting on your wings, use ultrahand to chart a course, then bring the wing back on land and drop it on the ground. Stand on the wing, and use recall to bring it back over the edge. Then cancel recall while in the air. You can gain extra starting hight for your glides with this as well.
  • @Gremlin.lemonbee
    Pro tip for the crates, you can drop one on top of the other to break them both at once!
  • @swr.nezumi
    To make jumping on a dropped Wing easier, you can simply use Recall on it
  • You don't need to beat kohga to access the refineries. At all times, until you beat kohga for the last time under rito village, one refinery will be inaccessible because kohga is there. First it's that one, but after you beat him he moves to another one, etc. I prefer to not fight him at all, and just use other refineries. The rito one is easiest, if you know where the entrance is. 😅
